I work with individuals, couples, and groups who believe personal change is possible and valuable in their lives. I use an emotion focused approach, as put forth in the work of Dr. Les Greenberg, and have received formal training in Dr. Sue Johnson's Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples. I believe that people are agents of their own positive change, and that many are unaware of how emotions relate to their thoughts and behavior. My clinical practice has taught me to respect the experience, worldview, and value system of each individual without imposing my own. I am an LGBTQ+ ally.
I help clients with anxiety and depression, trauma, grief, major life transition, issues with anger, and other emotional difficulties. When I work with couples, we focus on building a safe and secure relationship, rather than "fixing" the problem or mediating whatever the fights are about.
I look forward to joining with you in your journey of positive change. (Note: specialties listed on this website are for online search purposes only, and not reflective of specialty areas of practice as defined in the ACA 2014 Code of Ethics. I have training and supervised experience in those listed, and am not certified in any related modalities.)

I use an emotion focused approach to help people understand what they're feeling and why, so they can make positive meaning from a painful emotional experience. When I work with couples, we focus on enhancing connection within a safe and secure relationship, and learning how each partner can seek, offer, and accept support.
